Nitpick, Nitpick, Nitpick.. :-) I grouped 'Intel C Compiler' together in one section. 1. Intel C Compiler 2. Other Fortran Compiler 3. Other Ada compiler Not: 1. Intel C Compiler 2. Intel Fortran Compiler 3. Intel Ada compiler > The compiler supports some features necessary for RAD (like rtti), and > that is about everything you will find in FPC's design that is about GUI > programming. Still, FPC is damned fine for GUI programming. It is.. and it is damned fine for server utilities that I use every day, and it is damned fine for batch programs and console programs and all sorts of wonderful things. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
